How to override table settings for Joomla sites with Artisteer generated templates

We had a bit of trouble figuring out how to modify the settings of tables in sites that use an Artisteer generated table. We use JCE as our content editor.

The solution was quite simple:

Right click on the table

Click on Table Properties

Click on the Advanced tab

Go to to the Styles box and add your style preferences. For example, border-width: 0px; will set the border width for the table to zero. Additional styles can be separated by a semicolon.

You can do the same thing for cells and rows.

This will override the settings in your Artisteer template. Be sure to refresh your cache if you are not seeing changes. There is a handy page at http://www.somacon.com/p141.php that will help you find the right CSS Style code to meet your needs.
